From bfb3d7b8b906b66551424d7636182126e1d134c8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jiri Olsa Date: Sun, 15 Apr 2018 11:23:52 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] perf: Remove superfluous allocation error check If the get_callchain_buffers fails to allocate the buffer it will decrease the nr_callchain_events right away. There's no point of checking the allocation error for nr_callchain_events > 1. Removing that check.
